Mr. M.CHELLIAH, Secretary of The M.D.T Hindu College is one of the reputed entrepreneurs in Tirunelveli city. His multidimensional personality is a rare mixture of academic, religious, industrial and social conscious one.
His fondness in educational service to the most marginalized sectors of the society initiated him to be the member of the governing committee of this college which is serving the student community only from such sectors in the year 1996.
His keen interest in the upliftment of the rural students and in the rapid development of the college easily paved a way to be the Secretary of the college in the year 2012. His continuous and tireless involvement in the improvement of the college made him the fittest one to the position.
Apart from the educational service he has decorated many other social positions such as the Secretary of Tirunelveli District Bus Owners Association.

His initiation in bringing out a Thanga Ther (Golden Chariot) is still remembered by the city public.
